"We had a few mishaps on check in, but the front manager, Razin, went above and beyond to make up for our inconvenience. The hotel is beautiful, we had a spacious and comfortable room, the bed great. Not only across from the street markets, it's also on the South China Sea!"

"Comfort and very near to shops and restaurants. The breakfast served included some local dishes such as laksa, nasik lamak and roti jallah. As we were there on a Sunday we were able to enjoy the Sunday Market which was outside the hotel. Was able to see all sorts of local products."

"I really cannot criticize the Grandis in any way. Check-in was easy. The location was good, the room was clean, the staff were both professionally efficient and friendly. We had a problem with the air conditioning in our room and it was fixed within five minutes of reporting it."

Kota Kinabalu is a fast growing resort city. Thanks to the surrounding rain forests, imposing shadow, and steep curves of nearby Mount Kinabalu, plus the great diving and fishing to be found just off the coast here, it's easy to see why. The city itself has a number of elegant, traditional cultural sites, and you shouldn't pass up the opportunity to brave the ocean with a deep sea fishing trip.

If a beach holiday is what you're looking for, Gaya Island could be the place for you. This beautiful resort is nestled between rolling, humid rainforests and sprawling, pale white beaches and the adorning azure ocean. Simply sunbathing here is often the most common past time, but the more adventurous can follow the twisting hiking trails through the lush inland forests, and mangroves, where exotic wildlife and views await.
